How to Prepare for Your Urgent Care Visit
To help us treat your pet efficiently:
- Call ahead: Alerting us in advance helps the team prepare.
- Bring records: Share any known medical history, recent medications, or concerning symptoms.
- Stay calm: Pets pick up on stress. Remaining composed can help them feel more secure during their exam.
Preventing Urgent Visits When Possible
While some issues are unavoidable, many urgent visits can be reduced through proactive care. Routine wellness exams, parasite prevention, and vaccination schedules support long-term health. When health issues are caught early, they’re often easier to manage and less likely to escalate.
Be Prepared with Pet Accident and Injury Insurance
Emergencies can be costly and unexpected. Having pet accident or injury insurance can ease financial stress and allow you to focus on your pet’s recovery. Cimarron Animal Hospital recommends Trupanion, the only pet insurance provider that pays the hospital directly at the time of service! You don’t have to pay in full up front or wait for reimbursement. Visit Pawlicy.com to compare providers and choose the best plan for your needs.
